  1. But what about Dinsaur BBQ? I no longer live in wester nNY, that is one place I do miss!
  2. Gee I though this was a thread about some new Bar-B-Que joint that opened!
  3. Typically choose RB's with your first and maybe even second pick unless you're drafting late in 1st round, then go either for a great QB or WR You know it's funny you mention that as I was drafting my team last week, I was getting nervous as I seemed to be selecting a high percentage of white guys.
  4. So two good years out of five. What he did in Seattle may prove he was very good coach, but unless it was done in Buffalo, it has no bearing IMO of whether he makes the wall or not. If he had four or five of ten good years, I'd say yes, but reallty don't think he was here long enough
  5. So are you saying they shouldn't re-signed Carpenter and stuck with Hopkins who BTW has never kicked at all in a regular season game? Or do you blame the FO for drafting Hopkins knowing full well he was going to get hurt in training camp? Cohen has been on like six teams in three years, do you think there may be a reason for that? And he's trying to crack one of the deepest best positions on the roster. But hey don't let facts get in the way of bashing the FO.
  6. Knox was here what three or four years?? Yes they made the playoffs some, but not here long enough IMO to make the wall
  7. The only issue I have with him, seem to recall him him getting a number of holding calls against him at rather critical times. If it were Chandler who's considered an average blocker I'd say OK fine, but for the guy who's on the team for his blocking abilities seemed to get called too often.
  8. So we have a gay punter and one coming from San Fran?? Do they plan to be roommates?
  9. First off, I'm a bit surprised they cut him from everything stated and seen. But to rip the Bills from office as another example of being clueless is even a bigger example of being clueless! He's been on like six teams in about three or four years, and DT is one of the deepest positions on the Bill's starting with two pro bowl players and yet the Bill's were idiots for cutting him. LOL To those ripping this cut, get a life and stick to something you actually understand as football knowledge obviously is not your strength.
  10. This thread can't be true. I picked them for my fantasy team!
  11. Really shocked it took 8 posts for someone to pickup on that point!
  12. On top of Vanilla 4 out of 5 different O-line players from week prior per position, plus no Sammie. Lets give the O-line two weeks of playing together same guys in same positions.
  13. Yes and you for one can easily reconginze HC material. That's why you're posting on a message board. If the new owner is TP, think you're going to be real disapointed. Likely the end of this year the only change I see coming if the Bills don't show improvment is they dump Hackert and bring in a new OC. Unles the new owner has a hand picked guy he's real close with doubt either RB or DW go anywhere and likely Marrone will be given at least one more year. And likely thye'll blame any lack of improvement by EJ on the OC too, so doubt they'd give up on a #1 pick after two seasons. Probably would see a new OC and bring in an experienced backup and have a competition for the job.
  14. I think I should get a job selling used cars.
  15. As long as people like you keep posting about how bad he is doing, he's doing a fantastic job, shows how many people listen.
  16. It was reported that Moorman has been punting left handed this pre-season to save wear and tear on his leg.
  17. Does anyone know if Roger Godell knows that TP owns the Sabres? Did he have to dsclose that?
  18. So how does that compare ot the other 31 teams and how's it compare over a four or five year period? Wouldn't shock me to see that many teams have similar amounts every few years. I will grant you it's easier to accept when a team was doing very well, then starts to grow old, so you make some cuts. In this case that's not what happened
  19. So is the coaching staffs fault that Glenn wasn't ready at the beginning of camp. And it turns out that the rookie who filled in for him did so well, it quickly became apparent it didn't make sense to sit him when other spots were also struggling. The only thing you could blame the coaches for at all was their 2nd round pick not looking very well, but he's certainly not the only 2nd rounder to ever fail. While all the changes are hurting them right now, give them two weeks ot have the same players out there in practice and lets see how they look in the regular season. Even then, while you hope they look supper on Sept 7th, it still may take a couple more weeks for them to really gel.
  20. Well the other thing too is as the announcers kept saying, Tampa is very similar to Chicago so why show anything that the Bears could use. On the hand absorb what Tampa is showing you.
  21. Well when you take into account that this is the first game back for Glenn after practicing one whole week. Then you take a rookie who's played all of training camp at left tackle, start him to RT with all of one week of practice. Then as a result of that move, now you move a guy who's played tackle the past couple of years into guard. On top of that you have a last minute scratch at the other guard position and start your rookie 2nd round pick who's looked shaky at best all of training camp. But hey we do have an experienced center! So I do feel that lets give the O-line the next two weeks of practice before I'd agree wit hyou about hem looking real weak.
  22. So using your analogy a busiess wouldn't be able to issue stock dividends at the end of a quarter, or end of year bonuses would not be allowed, no hiring, firing, raises anything while the sale is going on. Those things typically don't stop other than in cases of real small busineses. In principle what you're saying I'm sure is true, for example if the state decided tomorrow they wanted to sell RWS, buying that certainly would changed the value of the asset by a large amount. But even trading for Tom Brady would change the valsue of the asset by very little in the grand scheme of things
  23. Love your idea, can't understand why the Bills don't try something like this?? Oh wait that's exactly what they did last year and got Tuell. So basically you want to repeat the same thing now except this guy won't have had any time to learn the system at all. With any luck by next season he may be as good, or even better than Tuell. The reason why Tuell appears to be the #2 guy this year is having had an entire off season, he had time to learn the offense and his skill set may be better than Lewis. Just like two years ago we had Jackson here and people never understood why he never played a down, you don't bring a QB in late August and expect him to be productive in anyway and Jackson was here even earlier than that. If it's a highly experienced you can maybe get away with it, but not a guy like this who's mainly been playing against 3rd stringers but you need a real experienced highly skilled team around him.
  24. Anyone have a clear line of sight to the Ralph? I believe if it's white smoke it's TP, black smoke JBJ
  25. I got half off ST Max so paying I believe it is around $170? plus $10 off regular bill. I'm still under contract, so hands are somewhat tied. Next summer I'll have more leverage, can easily say cancel as should not be under any contract then. I'm still not happy with my regular bill as some discounts have ended and my bill has gone up around $30 a month since March and in another month another $15 discount will be ending. But the guy told me right now that's the best he can do as the system shows I am still getting these discounts, so none other available. He told me to call back after the $15 credit ends, as they may be able to do something then. Two years ago, I had same thing happen, had a deal all worked out. Was happy with it, but they didn't honor it, so had to call back again and fight some more.
